yes - there is a DadsNet bit of MumsNet if you want to talk to other Dad's or you can just talk to the rest of us...

MmeLindor. · 27/12/2011 20:04

Not sure if this is the place to 'liaise' with women, if you are thinking of that in a 'meeting someone online' kind of way, tbh.

For general chat and arguing, yes.

Did you not consider lurking and reading and doing a leetel bit of research first?

Mumsnet is an entirely open forum that has been around for 11 years. It would surely be extremely unlikely that you would be the first man to join?

Hello Stanley. Are you are dad then? How many DCs (darling childrens) if so?

OldLadyKnowsSantaClaus · 27/12/2011 20:17

Ooh, that's not an attack, it's a bit of gentle ribbing. Grin

SayYuleNowSayWhipTheReindeer · 27/12/2011 20:22

Welcome Stanley. If you want to stick around you'll have to have a flameproof jacket handy.... Xmas Wink

There are other men around hiding nervously in the corners

I am intrigued as to why you'd pick this particular forum though.

I heard Mumsnet was good but I feel Im having to armour myself and defend myself, its good fun though, bit like running through a minefield

Are you a blogger, this is the blogger section. Is there any topic in particular you want to chat about? You could go over to the chat board or any specific subject headings, or just see what's on in active convos. Welcome!

OldLadyKnowsSantaClaus · 27/12/2011 20:43

No PM.

crazycrackernanna · 27/12/2011 20:43

What did it say SSH?

Shakey1500 · 27/12/2011 20:44

How strange? There are plenty of welcomes, advice where to start etc and flounced already!

SayYuleNowSayWhipTheReindeer · 27/12/2011 20:45

Hmmmmm......

Smells a bit fishy to me.....

crazycrackernanna · 27/12/2011 20:48
